The Twelve Animated Days of Christmas, #9.5
 December 22, 2008 7:48 am
I can’t help it, I’m in the holiday spirit, so here’s another one for today: the Firehouse Five Plus Two, led by Disney director and animator Ward Kimball, perform holiday music with Dixie flair. |

Ohhhhhhhhh, Mr. A.! I must thank you for a TRUE Christmas present indeed. Coming from New Orleans, Dixieland is in my blood…my SOUL! This clip enchanted me last year….and triple more THIS year (since I am now IN a dixieland band!)
Thank you, again!
I like that the drawing of the woman on the door has her “naughty bits” covered (around the :23 mark). It’s funny to see that PR hasn’t changed at all over the years.
I love the Firehouse 5 + 2! The close-up on Harper Goff cracks me up every time!
I remember when Ward and the guys would practice at lunch hour. And yes, I mean in the Animation Building where their sounds filled the hallways.
Boy, you really felt you worked at a cartoon studio back in those days. Damn! I miss the days when the animation business use to be fun.
I never get tired of seeing that clip. Thanks so much for sharing it. Oh to have seen them in person…
Merry Christmas guys!
I remember this from a jazz website, and it is a joy to see again. Don Peri’s interview with Harper Goff (in Working with Walt) has nothing about Goff’s musical, or acting, career; are there other Goff interviews available elsewhere?
Love the FH5+2, anyone know where this clip hails from?
I always liked that nod to the group on Rocky & Bullwinkle, with the gang of robbers known as the Fleet Fingered 5-3 (I don’t think I have that name exactly right).
I am a 71 yr. old Gramma, and love Adam at Home, but, I would like to know why Adam looks like he was drawn by my Grandson in Kindergarden?
